16-yenriold girl who has figured con
siderably In the limelight of late, Evhen
her mother, who resides at 151 Simpson
street, had her arrested on a warrant

her trouble, war nbtifled of the arrest
and at once went to this court room of
ludge Puckett to aid the girl. A bond
"f $50 was soon mads and the girl re
leased. .
The case was called for trial Friday
morning before Judge Puckett and the
a arrant was dismissed by the inotber.
tihe also agreed for Miss Sanderson to
lake charge of her daughter, which was
done, the girl accompanying the ma
il'® to the police station. She will be
hept there until another home Is ob
tained for her. ‘ *
The Owens girl wss held at tbs police
station for several days In cart of Miss
Sanderson, after her father wee exon

The Identity of the mother and the rea

The child was taken to the police sta

there until Friday, when It was transfer

MILLIONS DF FEET
OF LUMBER SEIZED
KEYSTONE FOUNDRY
HAS NEW MANAGER
To the Editor of The Georgian:
Your paper on yesterday afternoon
contained a very full and compute ar
ticle showing the profits of ths water
works system of this',city. It was-a
most gratifying report, and onb which
every citizen of Atlanta would feel sat
Isfled with If It were not for a popular
opinion on the part of many water con
sumers that the meters are Improperly
read, and that consumers are charged
unfair and exorbitant prices, not based
on the water they consume, but based
on a disposition on the part of those Jn
charge of the management of the de
partment to show large earnings.
You have opened your columns to
dlecuaslon of municipal ownership. You
have used the waterworks system as
an Illustration. In your argument the
Impression la Uft that the people are
not displeased or discontented with the
prices and their treatment on the part
of the waterworks department, but that
treatment whleh they receive from
other public utility corporations causes
dissatisfaction and Irritation on the
part of the public. You extend to the
pie the Impression that If these pub-
utllltles were owned and managed
by the municipalities there would be
no cause for complaint; that everyone
would be treated fairly and with con
sideration; that there would be no
over-charges, and that the citizens, as a
rule, would be satisfied.
Now, let us get at the facta. Are the
majority of the people of Atlanta sat
isfied with the prices which are charged
them for water? I do not mean the
price per thousand gallons, for this Is
placed at a moderate rate, but about
the reading of the meters.
It Is tny Impression that It you open
your columns and ask for expressions
on this subject, promising not to pub
lish or divulge names of those com
plaining, It will be, a surprise to you to
know Imw many people In this city be
lieve they, are unfairly dealt with as to
the amount of water they consume.
When they complain to the proper
authorities, are these matters recti
fied? Are they satisfied?
I do not care for you to use my name
In connection with, this,. but simply
throw out this suggestion, as It Is a
subject In which the public Is very
much Interested, and bears directly
upon the platform you have adopted—
that Is, the satisfactory management
of the public utllltlen under the control
and ownership of the city.
Personally, I have never arrived at a
definite decision aa to my position on
the subject of the municipal owner
ship. It Is a broad question, and there
la ample argument for and against ths
proposition.
I wish to congratulate your paper for
the reputation which It has earned as
to fairness and os to being a dean
Journal. I wish for you the success
which you deserve.
Yours truly,
CITIZEN AND CONSUMER.

PURCELL ACCUSED
OF STEALING RING;
$200 ROND FIXED
Henry Purcell, a barber, % brother
of young Purcell who shot end killed
his father several months ago at the
family home In Courtland street and
was afterward exonerated, was bound
over to- the state courts Friday morn
ing by Recorder Broyles on ths charge
of larceny from the house. HI* bond

from P. M. Escoe, another barber, at
41 North Broad strAet. Detectives
Lockhart and T. B. Lanford found the
ring In a pawn shop and when they
arrested Purcell, found the pawn ticket
In his pocket.
The young man admitted taking the
ring, stating that he picked It up In
the barber shop,
Escoe said he didn't wont to prose
cute Purcell, but Judge Broyles ex
pressed the opinion that he ought to be
f urnished, binding-hlm over and advm-
ng the detectives to prosecute the cose.

at the same time making a strong In
centive to the foundry to do unto th*»
publisher as ft wishes him to do unto
them—thus bringing about relations
which soon become strong business
friendships, of which there are already
a great many.
The advertising actually created and
•veloped by Ayer * Mon, who are
among the pioneers in their profession.

There Is nothing about the Pawnee
BUI ahow that you have ever seen be
fore and It Is this newness, coupled
with Its extreme merit, that makea It
«o satisfactory. Pawnee Bill’s Historic
Wild West and Great Far East- will be
In Atlanta on Monday, and It will be a
gala day for the city and the surround
ing country. The same term that Is
applied to circuses that whsn you see
one you see all, cannot be applied to
tills gigantic aggregation. It partakes
In no way of the circus. The artificial
is absent and only the natural ’In evi
dence. Of such magnitude has t,he
Pawnee Bill show become that It has
been divided off into two departments
so us to'avoid confusion. While thers
are many departments, they all come
under one head to make' up the great
show. But one ticket Is needed to visit
every department, and this same ticket
entitles you to n seat «t the perform
ance. There Is no attempt made to
take the leust advantage by overcharg
ing or other devices. * There is but one
price to this mnstadonlc exposition and
tills one price Is charged at all times,
but no more. Xo ticket speculating i
tolerated, gambling nor any catch pen
